Homeopathic medicine takes a whole person approach to disease by focusing on physical, mental, and emotional issues. Acute and chronic illnesses manifest as symptoms in the body, and these symptoms are individualized depending on the person with the disease. Homeopathy takes this individualized information and uses that to select the best matched remedy. Homeopathic medicines are derived from natural substances of plants, minerals, and animals. It is safe, effective, non-toxic, and does not interact with other medications.
